"I enjoy getting to work with different employer clients, getting to work with large companies as well as small businesses. I like the diversity of the practice, meaning one day I can work on assisting hospitals staff for nursing positions and the next day I get to help a farm staff a mechanic position. While it is a complicated area of law, it is never boring."
